Public openSUSE 11.3 virtual machine

I really like our openSUSE Community. Do you remember that before 11.2 release there was a possibility to try new openSUSE without installing it? Well, our community member Jaromír Červenka did it again! Original blogpost in Czech can be found here. For those who don't speak Czech, some basic overview in English.

Once upon the time, there was a virtual machine. It was using KVM and it was managed by gentle libvirt. But it was kind of lonely. But as it was young and fresh new openSUSE, it wanted to see more people. So Červajz made a passage for it through the firewall. And now it runs ssh, vnc and even web service and it can talk to everybody.

So end of fairy tales. You can access latest openSUSE Milestone using following informations:

login: password:
virtual virtual
root virtual
Connection posibilities
http://virtual.i-tux.cz/
vncviewer leon.i-tux.cz:5901
ssh -l virtual leon.i-tux.cz -p2222

And last thing to mention - there is already fate request to creating something like this officially. So if you like this, vote for it face-wink.png

YaST on mobile phone

Linux can run almost everywhere. For some time I was participating in Hacking & Development project, but lately I didn't have enough time to keep up. But today I went to the SleepWalker's office to take a look at his new Zaurus (NetWalker) and he gave me kernel that can run on my Centro. I tried it and I was thinking what rootfs should I try... I have in my longterm todo to try openSUSE ARM port which is a result of Google Summer of Code project. So why not? I tried it and here are the results - YaST running on mobile phone.

Litle glitch

I didn't have a time to solve all minor glitches as you can see on second picture, but when I'll have some time, I'll give it a try face-wink.png

  • One more note about affisix - backward entropy works now as well. So after school exams, I can start implementing new features and fixing broken ones...
    159 days ago :: link
  • Yesterday I finally convinced affisix to do something after the change of internals. Forward entropy works, everything else is broken, but it's just a beginning ;-) Hopefully new features will emerge soon.
